Comment:
I want to send in my comments that what you are proposing to do will damage the California economy and cost taxpayers $143 billion by your own numbers. I am quite certain that you came up with that number using a static analysis and it will end up costing us much more. This cap and trade will drive California's economy further into recession and cost us at least 1.6 million jobs (again your numbers which I am sure is too low)! You are supposed to serve the citizens of California and not damage them. What business in their right mind would come here or expand here with regulations like this? Why are you doing this? Global warming? There has been no warming in the last decade. Or maybe global cooling? That theory that died in the 70's? Perhaps "Climate Change"? Where is the proof that man made pollutants are the cause? The Hadley research Center in East Anglia? They were proven to be a bunch of fraud as was Michael Mann and his hockey stick graph! How can you know that the temperature the earth is at now is the optimum? You can't! There were article written around 1900 saying there was global warming... The satellite data show that there is now warming so why do this? You must do the right thing for the people that you serve and not go forward with this economic suicide pact. That is unless your real goal is to have California fail...
